Hetty McKinnon

Hetty McKinnon is a home cook with a passion for vegetables, and the author of Neighborhood: Hearty Salads and Plant-Based Recipes from Home and Abroad. In 2011, she established Arthur Street Kitchen, a community kitchen with a simple concept: local food for local people. From her inner-city terrace kitchen in Surry Hills, Sydney, Hetty dreamed up and cooked flavor-packed, hearty, seasonal salads, which she delivered to locals on her bike.In 2015, Hetty—with her family and Arthur Street Kitchen in tow—relocated to the rather larger neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York City. From there, she continues to deliver salads to locals, runs creative pop-up events, and caters lunches, making food friends along the way. Hetty also writes about her experience of food, life, and adventure in Brooklyn on her blog, www.arthurstreetkitchen.com.
